Our mission

The Guild Theatre aims to be a vibrant community theatre group that nurtures local theatrical talent and provides first class entertainment to its patrons.

Who are we?

The Guild Theatre, based in Rockdale, is considered one of the best community theatre groups in Australia. Since 1952, The Guild Theatre has produced over 250 plays, from Shakespeare to David Williamson. Our repertoire has included drama, comedy, classics, children’s plays and musical plays.

Our loyal patrons, numbering over 2,000, have been a major contributing factor to the Guild’s success. They fill the theatre to capacity for 4 to 5 seasons a year; each season having 15 performances over a five-week period.

Our membership of dedicated and skilled performers and practitioners ensures that the standard of production and performance has never been higher. Such standards are reflected in the strong patronisation and subscriber base that continues to grow and sustain our efforts.

The comfortable, well-equipped Guild Theatre itself is yet another legacy of the past. The theatre retains its Federation character while possessing all modern conveniences and technical necessities.
